But a translator&#39;s note is warranted, unless the context is sufficiently clear. &quot;哪里哪里&quot; should never be &quot;Where? where?&quot;. I have no doubt that the translator knows what it means and intentionally renders it &quot;Where? where?&quot;, &quot;humorously&quot; as you said. But this humor distorts the meaning so much that it&#39;s no longer correct. Was he comparing himself with Pearl Buck in choosing the pun &quot;pass your wind&quot; in translating the Chinese &quot;fang4pi4&quot;?

A big part of that threat concerns the security of their fortunes, which they and everyone else knows has been illegally acquired, at least in large measure. It might be of interest therefore to see how such issues are addressed in the US. There have been many large-scale swindles and fortunes made by underhanded ways in our history. The way our property law is written however allows such fortunes to be legally retained after a certain passage of time, provided they have not been legally challenged. In many cases only the persons defrauded can bring suit. In other cases the events are simply swept under the rug -- our Savings and Loan crisis being a recent example. Of course this doesn&#39;t mean corruption should be tolerated, only that in the course of time old sins forgiven.<br /><br />This idea of forgiveness is a central idea in Christian culture. Maybe the Chinese could learn from it.<br /><br />OneLuke Leahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11290760894780619646noreply@blogger.com
